Firefox was fine on my LapTop earlier today, Now, I have no access or visualization of the Main Menu Listings that are usually just below the title bar,i,e,,File,Edit,View,History,Bookmarks, Helpetc. Since I don' have access (it's not there), I cannot change settings. I have uninstalled and re-installed and it re-installs the same way.

  • In Firefox 3.6 versions on Windows and Firefox 4 on Windows and Linux it's possible to hide the "Menu Bar" via "View > Toolbars" or via the right-click context menu of a toolbar.
  • Press F10 or press and hold the Alt key down to bring up the "Menu Bar" temporarily.
  • Go to "View > Toolbars" or right-click the "Menu Bar" or press Alt+V T to select which toolbars to show or hide (click on an entry to toggle the state).
